Seen a few stories where people have injured themselves and broken TVs with the new Nintendo Wii.

Nintendo could be in for a few lawsuits.

That's stupid though, aren't you supposed to gently swing it around, and not lash out with it, I saw a vid on the tube with a guy who was playing tennis, and tried to do a serve like you do in real life, which resulted in a broken plasma, what an idiot...

It is still on Nintendo though. I find it stupid but I can see Nintendo up on some lawsuits.

I'm really surprised that didn't come out in testing. Should be easy enough, Nintendo should give everyone who bought a Wii a more sturdy strap.
